there's a 2pac diss on this track?
whats ironic about it? at any point in their career was mobb deep as popular as pac? are you disagreeing he isnt an icon or transcends the genre?the guy with multiple statues built of him in different countries and college courses based on him?.
whats funny is 2pacs hologram had a bigger buzz then mobb deeps had in years lol,and thats a fact.
Look man...
I know a lotta y'all don't wanna look at it this way...
but Pac was either A) sensitive as hell around that time and taking everything as a dis... or B) going at any and everyone just for the sake of creating controversy. IMO, it's a lil' bit of both. He blatantly said in an interview with VIBE (the last one he gave), "whoever cool with Bad Boy, or make a song with them nikkas, or whatever- I'm dissin' em"... and people still wanna run with them lame-duck explanations he gave in other interviews.
So yeah, Pac was reaching with that "they said thug life we still livin' it" shyt... and honestly, his real beef was probably just that they were cool with Puff. Just like his beef with Nas was his association with Dre, covered up in other reasons. Just like his beef with Jay-Z was because he rolled with BIG. Not necessarily because any of these people actually went at him, but by association with people he didn't like.
I respect Pac to no end, but all that shyt was for reasons just as petty as the disses you see today. Most of those "beefs" would've been deaded within a year had he lived, guaranteed... they were in no way/shape/form any more real than most lame rap beefs. Just made for more entertaining music and interviews.

Pac got 10x more fans in queens then mobb has, what that tell you nikka lol
It's ironic that he discredits Mobb Deep to boost Pac in the same post where he calls out people who discredit Pac to boost up the Mobb.

Dawg u arguing a point I never made. U are a Mobb stan so you can't talk about them objectively. That is all Im saying.
And@ picking Akuma. That dude is banned from tournaments. Dude is basically invincible. Beating nikkas with Akuma is not winning its cheating.
what a scrub akuma is banned in sT ofcourse
but in sf4 i will body you

East Coast rappers threw more disses and undercover jambs at west coast rappers than vice versa.

You've never been to Queens. Ever. Shut up.
I'm not talkin' about East Coast rappers and West Coast rappers... I'm talkin' about Pac and the targets he chose in '96.
I'm well aware of how the East Coast carried things around that time (and more specifically, the radio personalities, DJs, and crowds like the one at the Source Awards). But Pac with them "he's such-and-such's homie so I'ma go at him" disses got a lotta y'all really thinking all that shyt was legit and justified. Come on bruh... how do y'all not see the ploy 17 years later?
Let's not even talk about how he sold people the "Biggie & Puff set me up" angle for a whole two years before finally revealing who it really was.
really?It could be about anyone?Cmon breh even a dumbass could see its about PAC.
Sure, but unless names are officially named (or in Mobb Deep's case they actualy say who it's about) its typical East Coast subliminal work. Majority of the lyrics were just sounding like a regular Mobb Deep song until they got to minor specifics. Pac's work was much better. Which is sad because Mobb Deep then should have REALLY dropped a gem on 'em. P was in the zone then.
